20 minutes? Why? What took them so long? Unacceptable. In such a situation, 20 minutes is an eternity. All the more reason to allow teachers to conceal and carry in the schools! In fact, the training should be required.

If you are ever in a situation where your life depends on it and you have to make that call, say this "Officer down!" They'll be there in a hurry.

20 minutes? Why?

The police in this country have become as much of a threat as they are an asset, particularly when it comes to funding their outrageous pensions.
